Valuable opinions

“D1 is a model innovation in the diamond industry that combines the attributes of the public chain technology with the financial industry to promote the mobility and transformation of diamond values.”

Danny Deng
Chairman of Tai Cloud Corp

“Diamonds have been a great store of value for centuries. Now with the advent of new digital technologies diamonds enter into a new era that will see the value of natural diamonds reach new heights.”

Sandeep Kothari
Member of International Advisory Committee

“Tokenizing an asset is an easy concept. Making the back end work, so that it is is a real, audited, collateralized asset is the hard part. It is even harder if it is a non-uniform asset such as diamonds. D1, as a spin off from a successful Asian asset management business, has the skills to do this and have done it.”

Bernard Lunn

“Diamonds historically were much more rare than gold, more valuable and unique. By taking diamonds on blockchain and enabling fractional ownership D1 Coins will revolutionise the diamond market and create a whole new asset class.”

D1 coin ecosystem

The ecosystem of D1 Coin consists of Coin Owners, D1 Mint, D1 Reserve, and Diamond Suppliers. The D1 Mint and Diamond Suppliers are overseen and appointed by D1 Reserve, which also acts as a custodian by holding the diamond inventory. D1 Mint issues D1 Coins to Coin Owners, who can purchase and redeem diamonds from D1 Mint. D1 Mint functions as the central party in the D1 ecosystem coordinating the flow of D1 Coins, diamonds, and fiat currency.

1,6K Diamonds

Diamond carat weight is the measurement of how mush a diamond weighs. The carat (се) (not to be confused with the karat, sometimes spelt carat, a unit of purity of gold alloys), is a unit of mass equal to 200 mg (0.2 g; 0,007055 oz) and is used for measuring diamonds. The current definition, know as the metric carat, was adopted in 1907 at the Fourth General Conference on Weights and Measures.Diamond weight was expressed in carats since late XVIth century. In the Mediterranean area, there is a tree called a «carob» tree bearing carob beans. As ancient traders travelled around the Mediterranean and surrounding areas, they turned to the carob deans as a unit of measurement.

Diamonds range:

Carats

0.5 – 6 ct

Clarity

VS1 to Flawless

Color

F and higher

Cut

Very Good or Excellent

1,9m D1 Coins

Each D1 Coin is backed by 1/1000th of a model D1 Standard Diamond, which is Brilliant Round 1 Carat, Excellent Cut, F Color and VS1 Clarity. Diamonds with different characteristics are recalculated to the value Standard Diamond at a ratio determined by D1 Matrix - Artificial intelligence-powered, proprietary pricing algorithm comprising a neuron network which analyzes the relationship between the 4Cs (carat, color, clarity, cut) and 7 other characteristics with a price.

Additive model that makes predictions by combining decisions from a sequence of base Decision Tree models

Yields high quality of results, especially for data with a large number of variables and small number of observations

Does not require a test sample and has the ability to parallelize

1,6K Carats

Total current reserrve weight is 1598 Carats.

Diamond carat weight is the measurement of how much a diamond weighs, with a metric “carat” defined as 200 milligrams. All else being equal, the diamond price increases with diamond carat weight because larger diamonds are more rare and more desirable
